MA3216-102T4

Ferrite beads and chips are one of the most important components in a circuitry system. The MA3216-102T4 application field and working principle can provide us with deeper understanding about how ferrite beads and chips work, and make the system better served.

MA3216-102T4 characteristics

MA3216-102T4 has some unique characters compared with other ferrite beads and chips, which makes it popular. The most important character is about its size -MA3216-102T4 chip can be assembly in very small sizes (2,5 mm wide, 0,6 mm high, and 0.6 mm thick). As the required space for chip assembly is minimized, thus in many circuits quite complexity can be accomplished. Furthermore, compared with other types of ferrite beads or chips, MA3216-102T4 has superior heat resistance; the maximum operating temperature could reach up to 125℃, while most other beads and chips can merely operate in temperatures up to 85℃.

Applications

MA3216-102T4 can serve various fields where high efficiency and high resistance to heat are required. For instance, being often used in automotive applications, MA3216-102T4 can ensure steady data transmission even in hot vehicle environment. What is more, MA3216-102T4 has highly dependable performance in tablets, notebook computers, and other handheld electronic equipments, preventing the devices from RF/EMI interference, noise and heating.

Working principle

The working principle of MA3216-102T4 is essentially the same as normal ferrite beads and chips. The main component that makes it work is a ferrite core, which can absorb the radiation, convert it into electricity and then into heat, and ensure the device function stable. MA3216-102T4 contains three electric paths, which can filter EMI/RF and noise signals precisely. Two of them are used to filter the power line, and one is for signal line. The inductance value of the ferrite core increases as frequency increases, helping to keep the device from interference or heating.

Conclusion

Besides the common characteristics of ferrite beads and chips, the unique features of MA3216-102T4 make it useful in automotive applications, tablets, notebook computers, and other electronic devices. With the help of its working principle, MA3216-102T4 shaped like a chip can help to filter out the EMI/RF and noise signals and thus provide a heater environment for those equipments.
